Richard Silvestri: Are we going to let big-monied interests bring St. Lucie County to a standstill by scuttling Seven50 plan?

ONE ISSUE, TWO VIEWS: The Seven50 Plan

Of late there is a takeover of the public comments at St. Lucie County Commission meetings and possibly entire meetings by a form of filibuster. On Aug. 6 I went to the meeting for a presentation by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Seats were filled and I thought that was because of the presentation. When that ended the meeting moved to “public comments” and that’s when reality set in for me.
